Ingredients

1 pound ground beef
2 cups hot mashed potatoes
4 ounces PHILADELPHIA Cream Cheese, cubed
1 cup KRAFT Shredded Cheddar Cheese, divided
2 cloves garlic, minced
4 cups frozen mixed vegetables, thawed
1 cup beef gravy

Directions

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
Brown meat in a large skillet. While the meat is browning, mix potatoes, cream cheese, 1/2 cup shredded cheese, and garlic until well blended.
Drain meat. Return to skillet; stir in vegetables and gravy. Spoon into a 9-inch square baking dish. Cover with potato mixture and remaining 1/2 cup shredded cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven until heated through, about 20 minutes.

Healthy Living Variation:

Save 70 calories, 9 grams of fat, and 5 grams of saturated fat per serving by preparing with extra lean ground beef, Philadelphia Neufchatel Cream Cheese, 1/3 Less Fat than Cream Cheese, and Kraft 2% Milk Shredded Reduced Fat Cheddar Cheese.

Barbecue Shepherd's Pie Variation:

Prepare as directed, omitting the garlic and substituting 3/4 cup Kraft Original Barbecue Sauce mixed with 1/2 teaspoon onion powder for the gravy.

Shortcut:

Use instant mashed potatoes. Prepare potatoes as directed on the package, omitting the milk. This way when you add the cream cheese the potatoes stay fluffy.
